Bell X-5

The Bell X-5 was an experimental jet flown during the early 1950’s by the U.S. Air Force and the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (precursor to NASA) with the goal of probing the flight envelope of a variable sweep wing jet aircraft. As the first functional “swing wing” aircraft, the X-5 represents a milestone in aviation history.
